Use in environment without DOM

[mosch]

Awesome work you've done! Looks very smooth and i'm impressed by the card animations.

I'm using react-native to build native apps in javascript. And it looks like this library is the missing piece for doing exciting animations on mobile.

React Native allows you to use transformMatrix and it should be possible to use your calculations to animate things on native mobile.

Is there a way to let the library calculate the matrix without passing in the very dom element but maybe the time / animationFrame?

Thanks!

I'm not so familiar with react-native(yet) but it should definitely be possible.

There are currently two things that ties snabbt to a browser environment:

• requestAnimationFrame(is there a similar API for react-native?)
• setting the calculated matrix transform to a DOM element(could easily be changed to a callback for every frame with the matrix)

Everything else is pure javascript.

I think I have to read up on react-native but it should definitely possible with small modifications.

Sounds great! requestAnimationFrame works in react-native like in the browser. But if found some other things that might fail.
I'll try to collet them in the #60 PR.
